Mr. Nguyen Hai Quyen - Secretary of Giang Son Dong Commune Youth Union said: Implementing the fundraising movement of the District Youth Union with "creative models", today the commune youth union organized a car wash to raise funds for "Loving Heart" to create a fund to give gifts to policy families and poor children in difficult circumstances.

Tools and machines for washing cars are brought by volunteers from the Youth Union. Each person is assigned a task, so the car washing time is shortened. The price for car washing service is 15,000 VND/time.

Ms. Lan, a motorbike owner, confided: There are many motorbike washing places in the commune, but when I heard that the Commune Youth Union organized a motorbike washing day to raise funds, I brought my motorbike there, contributing a small part to support children in difficult circumstances. Seeing the children washing their motorbikes quickly, neatly, and responsibly, I was satisfied.

In just one day, Giang Son Dong Commune's delegation washed hundreds of motorbikes, earning more than 4.6 million VND and 600,000 VND from registered donations from local people.
